    As a Greek, I confirm that what Sam is saying about the Greek scriptures is true. Κυνάριον (pronounced "keenarion") means puppy dog, Κύων (pronounced "keeon") is the dog, this is where the word "cynic" derives from, because the first cynic philosopher was Diogenes (Διογένης ο Κύων, literally means: Diogenes the Dog, because of his lifestyle).

    He's exactly right. I went to the greek and checked every word and interpretation and it's spot on. The text should literally read "house puppies." I do not understand why translators don't do their job in these passages that seem so difficult. If they would just translate the words correctly a lot of the stuff would not even be an issue.

    • @Muself2
      @Muself2 4 місяці тому +4

      It might not be a mere coincidence as Christ told us “when everyone was asleep, his ennemy came and planted weeds among the wheat and then left.” (Matthew 13,24).
      I would not be surprised at all to hear that the translators working in the Bible nowadays are not even Christian’s but believe in another religion like those after the Resurrection who “gave the soldiers a large some of money, telling them”… (Matthew 28).
      If translators of the Bible are only to be professional skilled translators they will do it to get a better salary so will be easily bribable as they will not work for people neither for God but for money and Christ told us “you cannot serve two masters. Either you will hate one and love the other, or you will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money.” (Matthew 6)

    This is the only explanation I’ve found that is both profound, informative, and isn’t wrongly making an excuse of blatant sin. This makes sense. All other explanations I’ve seen say how it was ok for Jesus to have sinned in that way, when he never sinned in the first place. Thank you man.

    Caleb, which is “dog” in Hebrew, was the faithful gentile companion of Joshua who explored Canaan and brought back the good report. Because Caleb believed when the Jewish patriarchs did not believe; he was given the city of Hebron as his reward. Caleb (“dog”) is the role model for faithful gentiles.

    Even if the word means "Dog" Jesus didn't tell her she's a dog ... he wanted to teach her and the disciples a lesson by saying indirectly: Jews called Gentiles dogs but they are not... so Jesus taught them a lesson that they practiced later on during their missions, and eventually he showed her and everyone that Gentiles are not dogs (cast out) but they are in the family of God by believing the Messiah

    St. John Chrysostom offers this explanation in Homily 52 on Matthew:
    “With this intent did Christ put her off, for He knew she would say this; for this did He deny the grant, that He might exhibit her high self-command.
    For if He had not meant to give, neither would He have given afterwards, nor would He have stopped her mouth again. But as He does in the case of the centurion, saying, I will come and heal him (Matthew 8:7) that we might learn the godly fear of that man, and might hear him say, I am not worthy that You should come under my roof; (Matthew 8:8) and as He does in the case of her that had the issue of blood, saying, I perceive that virtue has gone out of me, (Luke 8:46) that He might make her faith manifest; and as in the case of the Samaritan woman, that He might show how not even upon reproof she desists: (John 4:18) so also here, He would not that so great virtue in the woman should be hid. Not in insult then were His words spoken, but calling her forth, and revealing the treasure laid up in her.”

    This is a very good piece. It is actually Philippians 3.2 (not 3.3) to be accurate. And in case you didn't hear it properly (I didn't as it wasn't clear to me when he spoke) it is Revelation 22.15.
    You can also add Luke 16.21 to that list though his examples provide the best emphasis to the point he is making.

    The Gospel of Mark (A parallel passage to this story) confirms sam's view:
    Mark 7: 24 Jesus left that place and went to the vicinity of Tyre.[g] He entered a house and did not want anyone to know it; yet he could not keep his presence secret. 25 In fact, as soon as she heard about him, a woman whose little daughter was possessed by an impure spirit came and fell at his feet. 26 The woman was a Greek, born in Syrian Phoenicia. She begged Jesus to drive the demon out of her daughter.
    27 “First let the children eat all they want,” he told her, “for it is not right to take the children’s bread and toss it to the dogs.”
    28 “Lord,” she replied, “even the dogs under the table eat the children’s crumbs.”
    29 Then he told her, “For such a reply, you may go; the demon has left your daughter.”
    30 She went home and found her child lying on the bed, and the demon gone.
    ----- Notice he said "First let the children eat all they want". Also this was a time where he did not want anyone to know (The passage doesn't tell us why) clearly this was some type of unusual circumstances to begin with.
    Either way: Jesus healed the woman's daughter......Muhammad killed dogs
